I hope someone can point me in the right direction. I got a small oil spot on my Banjo Paterson Hat at a restaurant the other day. What is the best way to try to remove it?

Woo Hoo! I finally got my new Jiffy Hat Steamer in today. Sooooo much better than a hand steamer or teakettle.... My question today is " HOW HAVE I LIVED WITHOUT ONE OF THESE FOR SO LONG!?" LOL

A Jiffy does make owning hats much easier! Congrats.
I fired it up today and finally did a little steaming and shaping on a scratch built hat project thats been sitting around incomplete for a while... I love this Jiffy thing! Now I need to fit and sew in a sweat, and do an edge binding so I can claim its almost a hat! Glad I spent some time with some serious pouncing ... the finish is really really nice. Have not added any stiffener yet but this butter soft felt seems to be holding its shape nicely...my old hand steamer just didnt do the trick (this is my first built from scratch hat)

Question, is an Agnoulita fedora good for an everyday wearer? I have a Hufvud on order, the Bogart, but would be reticent to wear it everyday. I’ve heard good and bad about Agnoulita, also from this forum, and want to ask your esteemed gentlemen’s opinion. I especially worry as what I would like to get is a 20’s style teardrop fedora with a ribbon bound edge and I remember that some from this site bought a ribbon bound hat and was dissatisfied with it when he received it? Let the answers pour forth!

I don't know if you've already done so, but check out some of the new posts in the thread HNC Hatworks (Formerly known as AnoulitaHats).

It seems that Mr.P has upped his game and has some new people in to deal with the admin so he can concentrate on making hats.

Thanks, Steve, I’ll take a look at that!
